Greetings, Cruise Fans, Welcome to the July 25 edition of the 7 Seas Cruise News. With so much extrememly hot weather across the country, maybe it's time for a last minute getaway. It's not that the Caribbean or Mexican Riviera will be any cooler, but there's sure to be a sea breeze, a cool pool, and an attentive steward with a towel or waiter with a cold drink close at hand. Pat reports that this is not a great season for cruising-unless you're a bargain hunter! There are outstanding prices available for the balance of the summer and this fall. With the price of gas so high, even the idea of driving to a cruise port sounds expensive. But if you pack the car with family or friends, it won't be so bad. And once aboard the ship, you won't even care! So give Pat a call and let him tell you about some of these very attractive options! There's no reason to stay home! You can reach Pat at 1-866- 424-1090. It's a toll-free call. Or you can wander over to www.7seascruises. com and explore your options! The website is always open and Pat will be delighted to provide an all-inclusive cruise quote for you. And now, just a bit of cruise news... Oceania Cruises will make its debut in the waters off Australia and New Zealand in January 2008. The Nautica will relocate from the Mediterranean to Asia in November 2007 and will operate a Christmas/New Year's cruise from Singapore to Sydney. The ship will then cruise between Sydney and Auckland, New Zealand, during January. The Nautica will head back to Southeast Asia and China for cruises in that region in February and March and will then return to the Med for its summer season. Also debuting down under are Celebrity Cruises cruise- tours, which are being offered in conjunction with the line's inaugural season in Australia and New Zealand, which starts November 2007 on the Mercury. Celebrity is partnering with Australian operators to provide a three-night tour with one night in Sydney and two nights in Cairns; and a five-night tour with an overnight in Sydney and two nights each in Uluru and Port Douglas. And speaking of Celebrity, they have just ordered the most expensive ship in the cruise line's history: a $ 698 million vessel ($ 245,000 per berth) due for delivery in June 2010. The third in the Solstice- class series, the 2, 850- passenger vessel will have staterooms averaging 210 square feet. The first Solstice- class vessel is due for arrival in late 2008. it is not yet named. For an 11th consecutive year, Crystal Cruises has been voted the "World's Best Large- Ship Cruise Line" in Travel + Leisure magazine's annual readers' survey. Crystal Cruises is the only cruise line, resort or hotel - and one of only three travel companies - to have won the prestigious award each year since the awards' inception. Crystal Cruises' luxurious, award- winning fleet consists of the 940-guest, 50,000- ton Crystal Symphony and 1,080-guest, 68, 000-ton Crystal Serenity, which cruise worldwide on itineraries of seven to 109 days. With a blend of South Beach style and fast-paced action, the new film "Miami Vice" is sure to be one of the summer' s biggest hits. And to celebrate the release of this summer blockbuster, Bacardi Rum and Carnival Cruise Lines have teamed up to create an exclusive " Miami Vice Mojito" promotion all summer long aboard the line's "Fun Ships." Adults aged 21 and older who purchase a Bacardi Mojito aboard any Carnival cruise now through Aug. 31, 2006, will be entered into a sweepstakes awarding a trip to Miami Beach where " Miami Vice" was filmed. Additionally, adults who purchase a Bacardi Mojito when it is designated as Carnival' s " Drink of the Day" will be entered into a drawing for shipboard credit during their voyage. Both of these promotions are open to all passengers aged 21 and over sailing with Carnival (no purchase necessary). The Bacardi Mojito is one of the most popular cocktails in the country. The story goes that it dates back to 1586 and Sir Francis Drake's adventures in the Caribbean. Ricardo Tubbs is played by Academy AwardŽ winner Jamie Foxx. Sonny Crockett is portrayed by Colin Farrell. The movie looks fun, fast and stylish without any of Don Johnson's pastel jackets, rolled-up sleeves and big hair. That's about it from sunny, sizzling South Florida. Until next week, I wish you all cool breezes...and smooth sailing. Teri |
